My First Air Travel Part-4

Hi All,

This blog also will continue my first air travel experience, Velshankar and I reached the boarding lounge around 1:45AM which was too early for a 4:10AM departure flight. We were sitting idle for a while then I took my laptop and searched for Wi-Fi network, so that I can surf internet for a while. Inside Hyderabad airport we had the free Wi-Fi access and I also informed Velshankar about it. Then he too started surfing internet.

Around 3:30AM, I heard a announcement coming from Fly Emirates counter that we can enter into the flight(EK 525). This time my seat and Velshankar seat were not next to each other. There was a three rows gap between us, mine was 21F and 24H for him. As expected, the flight started ten minutes late due to some technical problem and once I seated on my seat I felt it was too cool. So asked air houstress that I need blanket and then after a while had an hour sleep, Since air houstress woke me for having breakfast.

After having breakfast had another hour sleep and we reached Dubai around 7:55AM IST. We had only an hour and fifteen minutes to find our departure gate for our flight(EK 147) , and the gate number was 140. We walked almost a kilometer to find the gate and got the boarding pass. From the time we got our boarding pass, the boarding counter closed in another five minutes and we thought thank God! we reached on time.

To be continued..

Thanks,
Ramesh Kumar Gurusamy.
